Xu Zhiyan blushed and sat down on the spot, hugging her knees without even looking at Li Wenjin.

Seeing Xu Zhiyan acting coquettishly because she was drunk, Li Wenjin felt soft. He knelt down on one knee in front of her, raised his fingers, and gently rubbed her cheek with his knuckles, speaking in a very gentle voice.

"It's very uncomfortable to be drunk. I drink hangover soup to make you feel better. The bitterness of the hangover soup may be due to the addition of too many ingredients. I didn't intentionally add coptis in it to bully you."

"Stop being angry, okay?"

She still didn't look up, and even buried her face in her knees, squeezing his hand away.

He wasn't annoyed either, and still calmed the little drunkard in a soft voice.

Lu Xun, who was in the distance, couldn't hear what he said, but he could guess a lot from the postures of the two of them. He couldn't help but clicked his tongue, "Our Highness of the Song Dynasty is different from the rumors."

Xu Yanqing denied what he said.

"Brother Li's character and the way he handles things are the same as the rumors. It's just different in front of my sister. You can tell by looking at this. Because my sister likes red foxes, he knew they were here, so he started throwing chips at you. Let me cut you off."

"If it were anyone else, they wouldn't be treated like this at all."

Lu Xun looked thoughtful after hearing this, "Then do you think His Highness will blame us for giving your sister a drink?"

This is a good question.

Xu Yanqing didn't know how to answer.

And Li Wenjin, who had made the two of them feel excited in an instant, had no time to pay attention to them now. Xu Zhiyan, who had worked so hard to coax her, raised her head and peeled off a candy bar and put it against her lips.

"My dear, didn't you just say it's bitter? If you eat a candy bar, it won't be bitter anymore. The candy bar still has the grapefruit flavor you like."

【Grapefruit flavor? 】

Xu Zhiyan thought for a moment and couldn't figure out what the grapefruit smell was like, but it didn't stop her from opening her mouth to eat the candy. The candy went around between her lips and teeth, and the faint grapefruit smell spread, which made her feel much better. .

"I'm not angry, I'm aggrieved. I'm aggrieved that you gave me bitter medicine. I'm obviously not sick, so why do I still need to drink medicine!"

【It’s so painful! 】

It seems that he has not sobered up yet.

Li Wenjin sighed in his heart, feeling that the drunk Xu Zhiyan was cute and annoying. He no longer tried to reason with her, and directly held her in his arms. Instead of going back to the house, he walked back to where Xu Yanqing and the others were sitting.

Xu Yanqing was a little surprised.

"Brother Li, you didn't go back with your daughter."

"I think so too, but my daughter is not too drunk. She also drank the hangover soup. She won't feel uncomfortable after a while. The most important thing is what if I bring her back like this and ruin her reputation as a good friend."

They usually behave more affectionately, which can be interpreted as childhood sweethearts and childhood sweethearts with deep feelings. However, they are suspected of losing their virginity before marriage. Even if they get married later, they will inevitably be criticized.

He wanted her to be clean from start to finish.

When Xu Yanqing heard this, he realized that there was such a layer, and he immediately forgot to eat the meat.

Oh my god, I was wary of Li Wenjin before, thinking not to let him get too close to my daughter before marriage, but now it seems that he wants to protect her more than I do.

He admired and cut a large piece of roasted lamb leg for Li Wenjin.

The outer skin is roasted and sizzling with oil, making it look charred and fragrant.

Li Wenjin used chopsticks to tear off a small piece of meat, and under Xu Zhiyan's unwavering gaze, he brought it to her mouth, "It's hot. Eat a little to taste it first. If it tastes good, I'll tear it apart for you."

Xu Zhiyan shook her head and rejected this thoughtfulness, staring at the whole leg of lamb with burning eyes, her thoughts were self-evident.

Li Wenjin laughed.

"You have a big appetite, be careful. Okay, I'll make it for you." He raised the knife and dropped the leg of lamb. He just made a few cuts on the surface before biting it and handing it to her. She grabbed one end with one hand and took a big bite with her head buried in it. , thanks to the tenderness of this sheep, otherwise she might not be able to bite anything off this time.

But it's hard to bite down. Such a big mouthful is destined to be very hard to chew.

In the end, Li Wenjin couldn't stand it anymore, so he took a small bowl and asked her to spit it out, but she was stubborn. Not only did she not spit it out, she turned her back and continued chewing. By the time she finished the bite, her cheeks were tired from chewing and her eyes were dull.

She handed the lamb leg directly to Li Wenjin, and after a while, her eyes were wandering around looking for new delicacies.

Finally, I took a look at the rock-sugar fruits on the table. The brightly colored fruits were wrapped in thin transparent sugar coating. They were appetizing to look at, and they were particularly suitable for Xu Zhiyan to eat. She guarded the plate alone and then became quiet.

I thought about seeing how obedient she was and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I thought she would continue to make trouble, but she turned out to be quite well-behaved. Even if she made trouble, it was only Brother Li who made trouble."

When Li Wenjin heard this, her eyebrows softened.

"It's fine if I'm the only one making trouble."

……

The next day, Xu Zhiyan woke up in bed. Although her head didn't hurt, she felt a bit stuffy. She stretched out and turned over slowly, and then she met Xu Yanqing's eyes, which frightened the remaining drowsiness. .

She got up quickly.

"Brother, are you so presumptuous! Who is such a good person to lie next to the bed so early in the morning?"

Xu Yanqing had big dark circles under her eyes and looked at her with a resentful look on her face, "If you weren't drunk, I wouldn't be here."

Fortunately, yesterday he lamented that his sister was not a drunkard.

As a result, after finishing the plate of fruit, she was just like the one before, causing the three of them to be very upset. It didn't stop until late at night, but Xu Yanqing and Li Wenjin were still worried and insisted on staying until dawn.

Not long before Xu Zhiyan woke up, Li Wenjin had to leave due to official duties.

Xu Yanqing brought her a glass of warm water.

"This is what Brother Li told you to drink a glass of warm water first when you wake up."

Xu Zhiyan also calmed down now, took the water and asked him to find a place to sit first, instead of lying pitifully on the small couch in front of the bed.

Xu Yanqing didn't go, but still sat on the small couch.

"I have something else to say, so just sit here."

"Your maid Xu Xixi just sent a letter saying that your shop has been prepared in advance. I want to ask if you want to open it in advance, but you have to wait until the scheduled time."

Xu Zhiyan thought about it and felt that it didn't make any difference if she opened it early or late, so she just opened it earlier.

Xu Zhiyan made the decision on the spot.

"It will open tomorrow!"

"Then do you want to go back to the town?"

Xu Zhiyan shook her head, handed the cup to Xu Yanqing, slowly piled up the pillows and blankets, and leaned on them comfortably, "I plan to train Xu Xixi to be the shopkeeper, and I will teach you everything I need to during this period. Now it’s time to test the results.”

Xu Yanqing raised his eyebrows.

"How can you safely teach such a big thing to a slave? After all, this kind of thing doesn't just require talent."

"Doing business only requires talent. Only things that can interfere with the amount of money in the wallet are important. Whether she is a slave or not does not interfere with this, so there is nothing wrong with her." (End of Chapter)
